The Invisible Cost of Corruption

本站:Jan 30, 2026原文:Dec 29, 2025

hěn很duō nián多年lǐ里，zhì lì智利rén人jué de觉得zì jǐ自己de的guó jiā国家méi yǒu没有fǔ bài腐败，dà jiā大家xiāng xìn相信zhèng fǔ guān yuán政府官员bú huì不会lì yòng利用quán lì权力wèi为zì jǐ自己zhuàn qián赚钱。

For many years, Chileans believed their country was free of corruption, and everyone trusted that government officials would not use their power to make money for themselves.

dàn shì但是hòu lái后来，fǔ bài腐败biàn dé变得yuè lái yuè越来越duō多，yǒu xiē有些rén人yòng用quán lì权力wèi为zì jǐ自己hé和péng yǒu朋友móu qǔ谋取hǎo chù好处。

But later, corruption increased, and some people used their power to benefit themselves and their friends.

fǔ bài腐败ràng让rén men人们bù zài不再xiāng xìn相信zhèng fǔ政府，yě也bù不xiāng xìn相信bié rén别人。

Corruption made people lose trust in the government and in others.

rú guǒ如果rén men人们jué de觉得yǒu qián有钱yǒu quán有权de的rén人kě yǐ可以bù不shǒu守guī zé规则，shè huì社会jiù就huì会biàn dé变得bù不gōng píng公平。

If people feel that wealthy and powerful individuals can break the rules, society becomes unfair.

zhè yàng这样，dà jiā大家jiù就bù不yuàn yì愿意hé zuò合作，shèn zhì甚至huì会yǒu有gèng更duō多fàn zuì犯罪。

As a result, people are less willing to cooperate and there may even be more crime.

fǔ bài腐败hái还huì会ràng让huài rén坏人gèng更róng yì容易zuò做huài shì坏事，bǐ rú比如fàn dú贩毒hé和tōu偷dōng xī东西。

Corruption also makes it easier for bad people to do bad things, like drug trafficking and theft.

yǒu shí hòu有时候，fǔ bài腐败bú shì不是zhí jiē直接ná拿qián钱，ér shì而是yòng用fǎ lǜ法律bāng zhù帮助shǎo shù少数rén人zhuàn qián赚钱，zhè这yě也shì是bù不duì对de的。

Sometimes, corruption is not about taking money directly, but about using laws to help a few people make money, which is also wrong.

yào要jiǎn shǎo减少fǔ bài腐败，wǒ men我们xū yào需要ràng让shì qíng事情gèng更tòu míng透明，bǎo hù保护jǔ bào举报de的rén人，chá qīng查清qián钱de的liú xiàng流向，hái还yào要yǒu有jué xīn决心dǎ pò打破yǒu quán yǒu shì有权有势de的rén人zhī jiān之间de的bǎo hù保护。

To reduce corruption, we need to make things more transparent, protect whistleblowers, track the flow of money, and have the determination to break the protection among the powerful.

fǔ bài腐败bù jǐn不仅ràng让guó jiā国家sǔn shī损失qián钱，hái还huì会ràng让shè huì社会biàn dé变得bù不ān quán安全，rén men人们shī qù失去xìn rèn信任，duì对wèi lái未来méi yǒu没有xìn xīn信心。

Corruption not only causes the country to lose money but also makes society unsafe, causing people to lose trust and confidence in the future.

zhè xiē这些dōu都shì是fǔ bài腐败dài lái带来de的kàn bú jiàn看不见de的dài jià代价。

These are the invisible costs brought by corruption.
